Hello,
After building our installer with the enhanced UI enabled we encountered an issue where some of the properties we set in the user selection dialogs are not actually set at the end of the install. I have attached a small test project that can be used to reproduce the issue. When the enhanced UI is disabled the project should display the contents of the edit box at the end of the install. When the enhanced UI is enabled it displays a blank message box instead of the value entered at the beginning. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Logan

Re: Using enhanced user interface to set installer property does not work.
Hello,
I have tested your sample project, thank you for your sample project. This issue is related to an Advanced Installer limitation - when using Enhanced UI, if a property is not expliclitly declared in your project (eg. in install parameters or in a control event) sometimes its value it's not preserved through the whole installation process.
As a workaround to avoid this limitation please go to "Install Parameters" page and create a new entry - "TESTPROPERTY".
Best regards,
Sorin
